Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons green onions
- 0.25 cup teriyaki sauce
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces sliced pineapple rings (optional)
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, panko breadcrumbs, egg, soy sauce, ginger, garlic powder, and green onions. Mix well to combine.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties.
Heat oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, cook the patties for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the patties are cooking, brush them with teriyaki sauce during the last minute of cooking for a flavorful glaze.
If using pineapple rings, lightly grill them for 1-2 minutes per side until slightly caramelized.
Toast the burger buns lightly on the skillet or grill until golden brown.
To assemble the burgers, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a lettuce leaf, the cooked teriyaki chicken patty, and a grilled pineapple ring (if using). Add the top bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes or enjoy as-is.
